I found his honesty about his struggles, and what it had taken to do all that he did, inspirational. I had a LOT of nerves before games and remember thinking ‘if Jonah Lomu is nervous before games then it’s ok for me to be nervous too!’ It really changed the way I thought about pre-game nerves and being ‘ready’. ⠀ ⠀ Like so many other kids, I’d grown up marvelling at his athleticism and the way he carved up (or ran over) defenders. Jonah Lomu Rugby on the Sega Mega Drive was the game of choice in the Pocock household (on a side note, I actually thought I was pretty good at it until I played @quadecooper and he absolutely demolished me - he must’ve known the cheats even without Team Lomu and the Rage Allstars).⠀ ⠀ At the 2011 Rugby World Cup Robbie Deans organised for Jonah to come and talk to the team, he was humble and down-to-earth, staying to have dinner with us and answering guys questions. After a bit of pestering, he even took @digbyioane for a spin in his hotted-up car.⠀ ⠀ We lost a great man in 2015 but I remain grateful for the inspiration he provided me and so many others around the world, both through his skill and his humility and honesty.⠀ ⠀ #motivationmonday #jonahlomu #rugby ⠀」5月27日 10時10分
